We Want Roses Too (pills)



Anita deer in this documentary uses three diaries to reconstruct the situation of an Italy that has been, and that perhaps has been forgotten. The film is then articulated through a great array of archival footage assembled with great skill, so that I can also usable as inattentive viewers, thanks to the infinite amount of ideas, which emerge spontaneously here and there. Do not think that is one of those documentaries that are so fashionable today, like those of inquiry to Michael Moore, extremely shiny and set up what they want to see: to become the main protagonist here is the atmosphere that has been recreated with great skill through the emotions, struggles, ideologies and contradictions of an Italy so close yet so far. And, as we mentioned in the credits, it is not over yet.

The Simpsons - The Movie (review)



The Simpsons - The Movie (2007) by David Silverman


Simpson or Simpson?

Homer, Marge not obeying the order, discharge the waste from his pig into the lake already at the limit of endurance. The U.S. Government decides to isolate Springfield under a clear bubble, but the Simpson family will try in every way to save their beloved city.

The family's most famous television comes to the cinema after nearly two decades of regular programming, but what has kept his spirit?
The approach to this film can be varied, and depends essentially on knowledge of the viewer from the TV series created by Matt Groening.
I would distinguish between three types of people who are going to watch this film: who has virtually no idea what are the Simpsons, who has seen any episode and know what it is, and who can say good knowledge of the series, fans in other words.
The first type, the one formed by those who did not know what the Simpsons, you will definitely find this amusing transposition, and 'discover' this cartoon is more irreverent and outspoken than they thought (the position of most critics).
Even the average viewers will find this film enjoyable, pleasant, but they already knew the aforementioned irreverence.
fans, of which I unfortunately find myself a part, will no doubt with a bad taste in my mouth. Despite the big names who worked on the project, from the same L. Groening Brooks, writer of the episodes, the result is very low, compared of course to the TV series.
Much of this film you can understand if you see both on a large screen on a TV screen is: if the film the emotions out there, particularly because of the spectacular actions accompanied by an excellent technical achievement, not lacking in TV's yawning, lack of content is chilling, with a final result of absolute superficiality.
It 'clear that few have noticed this, very few would have expected something different from an American cartoon, and many, wrongly, saw this void as if the film had a longer TV episode. In fact, in a single episode for a little over twenty minutes there is a lot more substance of the entire film.
The motivation, however, is anything but obscure, it is indeed already evident from the very first scene of the film, in which Itchy & Scratchy, cat and mouse, if the damage of holy reason: unlike the episodes TV was censored the blood. As a great American tradition has been transformed into a work of social criticism, sometimes not at all modest, ipercommerciale work that have to be suitable for everyone, young and old, and must not be shocking to anyone, losing ability to think about (remember that the Simpsons would be openly democratic ideology).
As mentioned above, however, the implementation is very accurate, the film is fun and sometimes even the fans will find a little 'self-citations (for example, when shown the border with Springfield of the American States that do not border each other) . But in the end these are not the real Simpsons are a surrogate feel-good and watered.

What Are Internal And External Proposals

not Think (review)



not Think (2007)
Andrea Zanasi with Valerio Mastandrea

The Old New

Stefano Nardini is a rock guitarist who thirty-six years has not yet managed to break through, and when he finds his girlfriend in the apartment of her with another, has no place to go, and is forced to return to his family, who lives hundreds of miles to the north of him . Of course, here you will find that things are Tutt 'nothing but quiet, and try to solve the various problems with his brother, the firm on the verge of disaster, parents, community.

After reading a story like that, anyone would think the usual soup made of personal tragedies, crises of torque (any), and anything else that Italian cinema does not hesitate to give us all the time. On this we will return later. Many critics have even hailed the film, calling it 'a breath of fresh air', or even a novelty, this is justified by the fact that we are not talking about a drama, or copyright, but a good comedy and good (early tragic conclusion quite positive and characters 'classics' as a source of gags the prostitute).
The great virtue of this movie is right here, in an extreme form usable at all levels, from a public to a more refined casual cinephile. Rhythm extremely tight, well-chosen time to perfection (not cheap), very entertaining and after all, never banal, sentimental moments. Then we find actors who are so rarely at ease in a play, never out of tune or out of line, good characterization (if we exclude some sketches, which appear only a few times for good luck): acting, in short, is more than convincing.
no hesitation in saying that this film is one of the best Italian comedies of recent years. Here, however, I question arises: is this an advantage? Now explain: this film, seen by passionate, I left a bitter taste in my mouth. Not for the quality, of course discreet, as seeing him in context: bleak, a part of something Soldini in Italy there is a comedy that is not a pseudo- Moccia or a pseudo-De Sica (with very few exceptions, as Mid-August Lunch), difficult, too, find something compelling in view of the brilliant, if we exclude those art films that some 'of the play have, but you can define this genre.
Now back to the first point, which justifies the speech made so far: the plot is certainly innovative, and unfortunately the wheel following content: all we have seen, already chewed and chewed, the theme of the crisis of the firm, all'abusatissima marital crisis, the protagonist disliked by some because it works out, his friend out of his mind. The director also sought to highlight the problem of art is not recognized as a profession, but I think so, and somewhat forced bankruptcy.
Emblematicon el film is the character of the young politician, who at one point vents his frustration: he wanted to change things, him, but discover that you have no power. The parbola the film: he thought he could change at least something, but it was insufficient.
Rating: 6 / 10

PS: this review seems a harsh criticism, because I gave too much emphasis on subtle defects, and elements that soon became interested the average audience. Even for this vote seems perhaps too high. Next time I'll try to be more balanced.
